0577_EMC_Navigating Moral Distress & Compassion Fatigue: Strategies for Resilience_Live

Castro Valley, CA US
February 13, 2025

Description: 

This one-hour session will discuss moral distress and compassion fatigue within healthcare. Moral distress occurs when healthcare professionals recognize the ethically appropriate action to take but are hindered by institutional or other constraints, preventing them from acting accordingly. Moral Distress is prevalent in healthcare settings, yet many professionals lack the knowledge to identify its causes, mitigate its effects, and address the resulting burnout. By the conclusion of this session, participants will be equipped to identify instances of moral distress and develop strategies to manage these situations effectively. Additionally, they will learn to establish personal goals and self-care strategies to prevent burnout. This is crucial, as inadequate resources to address moral distress can lead to negative patient outcomes, diminished quality of care, increased medical errors, and reduced empathy toward patients.
